Inter Milan and Napoli could lock horns in a historic playoff match to decide the Serie A title winner this season.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, Inter’s results in other competitions will determine the date.

There’s nothing but goal difference to separate the leading duo heading into the last five rounds.

Indeed, Inter’s late heartbreak at Bologna saw their three-point cushion at the table’s summit vanish.

Meanwhile, Napoli’s relatively light schedule gives them an upper hand down the final stretch.

Simone Inzaghi and Antonio Conte could renew hostilities at the end of the regular campaign.

However, unlike Napoli – free of distractions from other competitions – Inter remain engaged in battles on multiple fronts.

In addition to tomorrow’s Coppa Italia semi-final clash against AC Milan, they will meet Barcelona in the Champions League last four.

Therefore, the Nerazzurri could contest the most significant fixture in the European calendar on May 31.

As such, the Serie A title playoff could take place on Tuesday 27 or Wednesday 28.
